Opportunity For Youngsters At Top Sea Cadet Unit
Young people willing to push themselves, to learn more about
who they are,
what they can do and how to work with
others, all mixed in with some great
boating, are being
offered a place at the nation¹s top Sea Cadet Unit.
TS Talisman recently featured in the Nelson Mail for
being awarded the
Ex-Royal Navalman¹s Award Sea Cadet
trophy and is now recruiting 10 new
entrants.
Cadet unit commander, Milo Coldren says a new entrants
class for 13 &14 year
olds begins on May 13.
³We
have heaps of fun learning about leadership, confidence,
teamwork,
drill, sailing, boat work, weapons, navigation
& survival skills,² says
Milo. ³We want to give them a
chance to experience what we do, before making
their
decision. Sometimes it¹s Mum or Dad who want it more than
the
prospective cadet, so we don¹t ask for commitment
until after the third
week.²
Free information
nights for interested teens and their parents will be
held
from 7:30-8:30 pm Monday 5 May and Wednesday 7 May
at the unit headquarters
at 24 Harley St, across from the
Police Station.
TS Talisman is also looking for one
more instructor/officer to complement
its staff. If you
are of exceptional character, have a good sense of
humour,
are familiar with the sea and or military, and
want to be part of a positive
team working with today¹s
youth, please contact Milo Coldren on 546 5414
